Good morning and happy Friday – the weekend is here! It’s Suzannah with you for the final time this week giving you traffic updates every 15 minutes.
Brought to you by The HACS Group, this blog will let you know how the road and rail links are near you.
Make sure to keep in touch via social media or email us on contact@thestrayferret.co.uk.
Remember at 6.30pm on Monday road repairs will start along Leeds Road for a month. That means the roads from Beech Avenue, Harrogate, through to Princess Royal Way in Pannal will be closed.
I hope you have a lovely end to your week.
